Manipulations & Malfunctions:

This course is an in-depth examination of the techniques used to get your gun back into the fight if it runs dry or malfunctions.  Like all of our 1/2 day skill courses the Manipulations & Malfunctions class starts with breaking down the reason for & application of the techniques.  The range time is spent familiarizing & ingraining the proper procedures so you can practice the techniques on your own & not only perform the skill correctly, but also recognize & correct any deficiencies that may develop.  While the emphasis of the course is on various reloading & malfunction clearing techniques we also touch on the drawstroke, movement, the non-shooting applications of various techniques and equipment selection/modification.  5 dummy rounds are included in the course materials for use on the range.
